This guys vids are pretty cool. After my last failure ot get a pre-built app to Deploy on Heroku I decided to start from scratch and do a tutorial on building a React App from Scratch, and i followed the tutorial below: I started at about 3.30am in bed using the Surface 3. It didn’t

This is one of Brad Traversy’s courses for making an expense app. There are earlier videos where he does it in vanilla JS then moves on to doing it with React and using State to store the data, then in the video below he uses a MERN Stack (MongoDB, Express, React & Node) and gets

My main blog site now has over 300 articles. It has been noticably slower this year. I’ve tolerated it but its got th e point where I have to have a more focussed look at it. Even opening the admin dashboard and opening a new post takes a while, which can be annoying when you

This is based on the video by FreeCodeCamp.org below and also I cloned the git repository to use their code for testing HERE: I’m interested in playing with the React front end, as I’ve been playing with the node.js backend so I felt that this tutorial was an extension. After getting my head around the

I went to a python meetup where one of the presentors was running a Python app using a google cloud function (GCF). I had to have it explained to me what these were, the thicko in the room. It ends up as an online environment that will run your code. It is dormant until you

I’m looking at trying to host a node.js instance on something like Heroku and for pushing to Heroku I saw in the Code Train videos on deploying node that Daniel was using git commands to push the info across to Heroku. Another reason is that I’m sometimes working in the bedroom, sometimes in the living

I’m going to try and follow this tutorial, some of the early ones are stuff I’ve done before, but the reference to the npm video was interesting. Also to the npm site for looking at packages. Two other resources I just want to highlight. 1/ Daniel Shiffman website and 2/ npm website for packages. Objectives

This is really interesting. Brad Traversy’s Create a Fake REST API with JSON-Server video follows on from my learning post about Node.js with The Coding Train’s tutorials. I’m being pulled in 2 directions at this time, 1/ Trying to get my head around using APIs and building them & 2/ Creating a Node.js server somewhere

My current area of interest is in exploring Asset & Facilities Management tools based on capturing information at Design/Construction phase for use throughout the life of the building.
